Hey emo friends!

Today I want to discuss the amazing growth of this book.

I am OVERJOYED with all of the support that this book has gotten. I started it about a year and a half ago, and I never thought it would get this popular. It all started as a simple idea in my head after I played a music version of truth or dare with some friends. I thought that it would be super cool to have one with everything that was considered "emo".

Obviously, a lot has changed over a year and a half. I've gotten better emotionally and psychically, and a lot more mature. I'm nearly fifteen now. Things have changed in "emo" culture, too. Bands have made new music, YouTubers have split up, and even MCR released an anniversary album.

I've also grown a very strong love for the singer/youtuber SayWeCanFly. Some people even say that I'm not the same without his music and personality. I'm so glad that I've actually found my favorite solo artist that means a lot to me. I've looked up to him for a while, and I finally got to meet him in person.

I guess now I'll address the MDE thing. I do not support BryanStars anymore. I will continue to support the other six members of the group, but not him. I'm sure most of you knew how much I appreciated him at first, but that was before all of his lies and plans of manipulation were exposed.

I have huge support for Johnnie Guilbert and Alex Dorame, because they shed some light on the situation and tried to make things better. They did what was right. I actually met them on the Somewhere Before Christmas tour, and they were super nice and easy to talk to.

But now that I've moved on from my personal growth, I'd like to discuss the growth of this story.

I guess this book would've been deleted if it weren't for the hilarious comments and reactions from you guys. I do read every single one of your guys' comments. They make me laugh and appreciate the alternative scene even more, because it's filled with tons of people who are super hilarious. This sounds sappy, but back when I was going through the worst period of my life, I used to read the comments on this book to lift my spirits a little.

But it's great now to see the book at over 76k reads (I've deleted some annoying, self-promo chapters that had quite a bit of reads) and still going strong. I'm going to work on editing past chapters and making them better quality, along with thinking up some new ideas for more truths and dares.

I'm so excited to see what the future holds for this book.

Thanks for the overwhelming support!

Be you. Stay safe. Stay cozy.
